Dear Brother / Sister,
The deposits, yellow stains and calculus on the teeth do not prevent the fard of ghusl; it is valid, and it does not prevent the sunnah of wudu.
However, it is sunnah to clean the teeth and keep them clean. It is also important to keep the teeth clean in terms of health.
Therefore, it can be said that it is sunnah to clean the layers that form on the teeth.
However, stones added to the teeth for ornamental purposes are not permissible, and since it is fard to wash the mouth in ghusl; they prevent ghusl; they need to be removed.
Since it is sunnah to wash the mouth in wudu, the wudu is valid even if such ornamental stones are contrary to the sunnah.
